Work On New Airport
Begun; Elon Pilots
Flying At Top Speed
Since Spring lias arrived, the
“Elon Cadets’’ have really start
ed spreading their wings. 'Ihe
boys in the C. P. T. class have
been flying extra time to make up
for the time that they lost when
the ■weather was too rough to fly.
'I’he majority of the students have
soloed and the others will soon
make this step. The ground
school has been going at top si>eetl
and the students should be ready
when the time comes to take the
exam.
The program must keep going
at top speed so they will be
through when the Fairchild Air
craft factory takes over the Huff
man Airport sometime this
Spring. Work on the new airport
lias been going on for somej'm®?
and the field is rapidly taking on
the appearance of a motlem air
port. The location of the field
cannot be revealed in print, for
obvious reasons. A three-lane
highway has been built connect
ing it to the highway. WHien it is
completed it will be one for this
country to be proud of.
